<p>I saw the lang team's consensus at <a href="https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/pull/2725#issuecomment-701527929">https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/pull/2725#issuecomment-701527929</a>: “We do want a generalized mechanism for trait-based pseudo-globals across the whole crate graph”</p>

<p>does that mean you're going to un-postpone <a href="https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/pull/2492">https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/pull/2492</a> ?</p>

<p>I'd suggest looking at the recent topic -- <a href="#narrow/stream/213817-t-lang/topic/global.20hooks.20and.20their.20relation.20to.20traits.20and.20vtables">https://rust-lang.zulipchat.com/#narrow/stream/213817-t-lang/topic/global.20hooks.20and.20their.20relation.20to.20traits.20and.20vtables</a></p>
